Does Pillars of Eternity get good at any point?

No, I played every CRPG thats worth playing and left it for last because each time I would start it I would get bored 5 hours in.
Its just not that good, luckily we no longer have to pretend it is just because its the only CRPG out there made in the modern age.

I replaced all the regular companions with custom characters and the game became pretty great after that. No more yapping.

not at any point I've played through
I gave it about 5 hours btw. the isometric CRPG (((revival))) has been such a meme.

Not really. I didn't really enjoy it until I tried playing on the hardest difficulty. Beware the default party members are awful on that mode.

Thanks. That's all I needed. I feared dropping it in case it actually got good.

I can get a couple, but it really rubbed me the wrong way when they overplayed it

that's actually pretty brilliant. I had no idea that was an option. the crafted companions are easily my least favorite part of the game. thanks, anon!

Gets worse, really. Reaching the big city is the climax in this game and honestly, the second one is not worth installing.

It's a good looking game thoughbeit. At least the backgrounds are decent, albeit bit soulless.

Maybe at the point it gets the turn based patch, we don't know yet.

The most offensive thing about this game is the back characters that do nothing other than dump a wall of pretentious text onto you that's supposed to tell a 'story'. It doesn't worldbuild and it isn't immersive.

That's the kickstarter backer toll, a pox on humanity.
